I’ve played through the game once on normal now, basically doing a full clear and full explore, making sure I don’t miss anything important. This was fine, having been away from the game for a long time.
The idea of having to do it again 2 more times though, doesn’t appeal to me (not the playing through the difficulties, just searching out every corner of every map).
My question is, has anyone done a guide, or just scribbled on images of the world maps, an “essential” route? Basically a route that makes sure you pick up all the shrines and quests that give skills or other character augments.
If I could be pointed to such a thing, if it exists, that’d be great.
Instead of starting a new thread I’ll just add a related question to this one. In the list of completed quests there are those that have a gold star remaining next to them. Some of them were side quests and some main, but why is the star there at all if they are marked as completed, what does it signify?
There are not stars unless they have a new quest. In Devil’s crossing, the guy next to the portal will sometimes show a star because he has a new quest, but you haven’t met the requirements to see it yet. I believe he is the only one that does that.
I don’t know for sure, but I’m assuming the starred quests are ones that are required. Maybe they are for ones with faction points associated with them.
U can simply copy the “map.fow” from an character u have already explored map to others. It works between difficulties, so if u explored in normal, u dont need to explore on elite and ulti!
